the coercion bill in the House OF Com
mons. twitted Lord Randolph Churchill
and Chamberlain with having secretly
consulted Parnell, seeking to make an
alliance with him for their own pur-
poses. The spirit in which the Gov
eminent would administer the coercion
act il il were passed was sufficiently
shown in the appointment OF Colonel
King Harman to the parliamentary un-
der secretaryship for ireland. The bill
would fail to suppressthe Irish National
League, because the people of Ireland
believed in the league and trusted it.
The effect OF the enforcement OF the
bill would be to make the Government
more detested and the league more
popular than ever. AS to the Tory and
Liberal Union taunts about American
gold fostering Irish discomfort, Sir
William said "There are none who
have less reason to complain of Ameri-
can gold than the Irish landlords, for
none get more of it, They get it
through their poor tenants rents" If
the Government earnestly desired to
maintain the union let them abandon
the policy of exasperating the Irish
people and adopt policy of justice and
Cancellation. CHEERS
Major Saunderson CONSERVATIVE
said That the National League was sup
ported mainly by criminals, dyna-
mitards, and murderers across the At
lantic. He did not charge the gentle
men opposite with imbruing their
hands in blood, but he did charge them
with associating with men whom they
knew to be murderers.
Mr.. Healey said that if Major Saun-
derson referred to him he had no hest
tation in saying that Saunderson was a
liar.
This remark was greeted with rousing
Pamellite cheers.
The Speaker called upon Healey to
withdraw his expression.
Healey replied: 81 am not entitled
to rise until You sit down, " when cheer
ing was renewed.
The Speaker then resumed the chair.
and Healey again took the floor. He
said 81 am only able to meet the
charge in one way. If you rule that
Major Saunderson was in order nay ex-
preston was equally in order. If yon
rule him out OF order l shall withdraw
my expression"
The Speaker "That is not so. Mr..
Saunderson made a charge of the
gravest nature. The responsibility
rests entirely with himself. 1t is his
duty to prove ii if he can cheers i
but I cannot allow the expression you
used"
Healey repeated that Saunderson was
ga liar"
A great uproar arose. The Speaker
again called upon Healey TO withdraw.
Healey refused. The Speaker there
upon named him, and W. II. Smith,
First Lord Of the Treasury, moved
that Healey be suspended.
Redmond jumped up and shouted ::
81 say he is liar, too"
The House divided on motion TO
suspend Healey, and the motion was
carried-118 to 50. When the vote
was announced Healey walked out of
the House applauded by all the Par
nellites, who stood up, waving their
hats and raising cheer after cheer.
Saunderson, upon attempting to re-
sumo his speech, was interrupted by
loud cries of Withdraw" with
draw"
Sexton interupting. asked Major
Saunderson whether he (Saunderson)
persisted in his statement or would
withdraw it.
Major saunderson replied that Sheri-
dan was a member Of the Executive
Committee of which the member for
West Belfast (Sexton) was also MEM
Der. Loud cries of " Withdraw.
Sexton Did | know him to be a
murderer ? Did / ever ASSOCIATE with &
man whom knew to be a murder r {?
rCheers and voice Withdraw your
MURDER
Major Saunderson: "I said that
Sheridan was on the committee, and
against him true bill was found for
completely in the Phenix-Psrk muir
ders. The committee must have known
what kind Of a KAN he was.
Here Sexton, springing to his feet,
shouted L say you are a wllful, cow
ardly liar"
Then there was another uprOar. The
Parnellites all rose and cheered franti-
cally, waving their hats in the act. As
soon as there was q chance to be heard
Sexton, again addressing SaundersOn,
exclaimed "If | only met You outside
the door Of this house l would thrash
YOU within an inch of your life" The
excitement was again renewed.
The Speaker arose and addressed
the House, but his voice was isaudible
above the din. When quiet had been
somewhat restored the Speaker said
unless Sexton withdrew his expression
he would be compelled to name him.
He appealed to the House to assist him
in his duty, adding that he was willing
to do anythingin his power to allsy bad
feeling. [Cheers. The Speaker then
pointedly asked Saunderson whether he
charged Sexton with associating with
murderers. Mr.. Saunderson, after sew
eral evasiye answers, which were inter
rupted by loud cries of "Answer !"
Answer the Speakers question (! J"
eventually withdrew the words he had
used The Speaker then asked Sexton
to withdraw his expressions, at the
same time adding 81 can't conceal
from myself the fact that provocati6n
has been very great" Loud cheers. ]
Sexton then formally withdrew his ex-
preston.
Mr.. Leake, member for Lancashire,
suggested that Healey be recalled. The
Speaker said nothing could be done in
the matter until the neJt.sitting. Sex
ton thereupon gave notice that at the
next sitting of the House he would
move that the suspension of Healey be
revoked. Cheers
Mr.. Saunderson then resumed his
speech. He said Sexton was present
at the meeting at which Egan was
made secretary of the Clan-Na-Gael.
which was a murder society Of Ame-
RIGA.
Sexton rose TO a point Of order, and
the speaker advised Saunderson 10
withdraw the offensive expression. An
other scene of confusion ensued, Saun-
derson repeating the words. Where
upon Sexton shouted, 1.-The honorable
gentleman is again liar" The Speaker
